It’s a day like today that we dream away
For we dream of trips away on a rainy day
On sunny beaches and a warm sun
To cheer our souls and our bums
We want to feel the sand under our feet
With the sea lapping up our toes it does reach
A happiness does this bring us in our minds
Whilst in reality we shut out the weather outside
It’s only rain and wind we hear tapping away
On our windows this autumn it’s here to stay
So think of warm pubs and open fires
A band playing away that person of your desires
Hot weather doesn’t have to cheer the heart
A trip away on a rainy day is just the start
Eire is a favourite of mine on a day like this
Happy chatting away life with locals and Beamish
So all be cheery and imagine being there
In a pub, open fire, seafood cooked by your chair
Feeling warm and relaxed in this place you will
Nowhere else you’ll wanna be this a place to heal

I'm a thinker, listener, a "question's pretty much everything" type of person. A seeker of knowledge, always restless, yet seeks the calm in life.
I love writing in all forms and am in the process of completing a number of ongoing projects. I love the craft of writing and the possibilities it holds. A magic carpet through the mind. I love pretty much all creative arts, music, film and theatre the leading ones.
Born in Hertfordshire in England, my family Irish, Welsh and English, I currently reside in Edinburgh, in Scotland. I'm drawn to coastal and mountain regions where I like to go to think and draw inspiration from. Ireland is a place that's dear to me, and I try to get back to see family and friends as much as possible.
My interests are wide and broad, too many to mention here, but history, archaeology, criminology, music and film are just some of those things I love.
I hope you enjoy my ramblings on here as that's what they are really. I'll let my fingers do the ''talking...''
